Yes.
Paypal NEVER address you as Dear Customer etc, they will put your full name eg Dear John Smith.
Paypal NEVER tell you to enter sensitive log in or financial info via a download or attachment etc.
If in doubt send to spoof@paypal.com

As the emails have nothing to do with paypal and are sent by scammers using different / hijacked email addresses somewhere in Africa what do you expect paypal to DO about it???
You send your email to paypal so you can confirm its not from them so you are not scammed but their is little they can do to stop someone emailing you from Africa !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
